So. Fucking. Good.
I love it when this happens.
I love it when a book I am highly anticipating meets my expectations.
It's a moment that's almost celestial.
Such a joy.

In an effort to avoid spoilers, I will keep this borderline gush-fest brief.
Pam Godwin is an author goddess.

NO ONE writes dark romance like Pam Godwin. Seriously- no one. She is the best of the best when it comes to this genre in my opinion. Her Deliver series has been epic for me, so of course I was ecstatic to get to this book. Devastate is Tate’s book, but there is so much more to it than just being Tate’s book. We get so much of my boy Van, and another one of my favorite characters from Pam (to be honest, he kind of stole the show for me… and totally needs his own book ASAP!).

It's been a long LONG while since I read a dark romance so dark that I actually needed a mental health break after reading it. This book completely destroyed me. In the best way possible. But I still doubt I'll ever be the same.

Devastate is the fourth book in the Deliver Series. In order to grasp the full emotions of the characters and their plight, I highly recommend reading this series in order. As the twisted fates of a few broken people intercept and intertwine, the balance of right and wrong sway violently back and forth. This series is certainly not for the faint of heart but, if you are willing to take a ride through the dark and twisted side than this one is for you!

Oh my poor battered heart. This series is everything I want in a dark romance. And I do mean dark.

Another awesome book by Pam Godwin!! I do feel Van made this story!! I enjoyed every scene with him in it!!! I finished this book at 3:30 am... which means I’m tired! Lol!!! So review to come!
WHAT IS THE PRICE YOU'RE WILLING TO PAY?
Tate has decided to help locate his best friend, Camila's, sister. Most everyone is convinced she is dead since she was stolen and sold into sex slavery over a decade ago. Even Camila no longer thinks her sister, Lucia, is alive. Tate makes it his mission to find out the truth about what happened to Lucia and *if* she's alive to reunite her with Camila. The price he must pay to find the truth broke my heart.

Devastate did just that, it devastated me in the best and worst ways possible. It was a gut-wrenching, heartbreaking, nail biting, page turning read that I quite enjoyed it even when it made me so ragey that I wanted to do some irreparable damage to a certain character. Devastate wasn't all dark, there were light hearted moments between Van and Tate that had me laughing out. Van doesn't know the meaning of the word boundaries.

I'm totally in awe of Pam Godwin's inability to invent a completely new plot and atmosphere with each new book of the Deliver series.
In Devastate, the 4th installment, we follow the story of Tate (a true alpha that made me swoon: patient, caring, protecting and dominant ) and Lucia, Camilla's sister, a badass and resilient heroine I instantly connected with.
Once again, the psychological journey, and distress of 6the characters was amazingly handled. It truly was devastating. And beautiful.

Devastate undoubtedly my favorite book, to date, of the Deliver series it’s beautifully twisted right from the start. Pam Godwin wrote one hell of a dark romance, that will challenge your mind and heart to see if you can take it all. It's heartrending how much a person can endure to protect the people they love. And in this book, I found the most sinister character I've read so far and I'm not talking about Van.
I greatly enjoyed Tate and Lucia's story. A real page-turner! I highly recommend thi ...more
This is the fourth book in the Deliver series. Read the previous books in order as this truly is a great series.
Tate vows to find Lucia who is Camilas sister. He certainly doesn’t expect what he finds. He will do whatever he can to protect her and make her his.
This truly is an amazing series. I haven’t got enough words in my vocabulary to give these books the reviews they deserve.
If you enjoy dark reads then I highly recommend the Deliver series to you.

Every time I think Pam Godwin’s books couldn’t possibly get better, she out does herself and creates a story that is impossible to put down. I absolutely loved this nail-biting book.
